    Are Joel Osteen and his wife really Christians?

    No account of Jesus hanging in the Roman Coliseum or at the all hours pub, strip clubs or any debauched concerts like Un-lady Gaga. Aren't we supposed to know a Christian by their fruit? If Osteen was outside in the parking lot dodging security in order to place tracts on car windshields, that...

    Background Information About James

    The position from which you start - "James' understanding was crippled due to having arrived late for the party" - is the wrong place altogether. Start here: "...holy men spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost." James spake as he was moved by the Holy Ghost. Therefore, every word of James...

    Jack Van Impe Challenging Pope Francis to Debate!!

    Whether the catholic priest claims to be "the creator of his Creator" or claims to change dead bread and booze into the body and blood of Jesus, both are Satanic blasphemous deception in the highest order. God told the king of Tyre that though he claimed to be god, he was no god at all and...

    Subtracting Works

    Early on today, the devil started putting sinful thoughts in my head. Though the temptation was intense, I was reminded to "forget not His benefits" and to "grieve not the Holy Spirit", so I called out to God to chase both those thoughts and the devil away. Antinomianists like HR would...

    ADDING WORKS:

    70 times 7, right? LOL I know, but it's still kinda annoying when someone resorts to throwing around the "H" word instead of addressing a point with a counterpoint. Usually, the ad hominem is the result of the inability to make one :)

    ADDING WORKS:

    What does it mean to "talk past" someone?

    an open letter to bbyrd009

    It took me a while to learn that "righteous indignation" felt against religious error is never an excuse for unrighteous behavior toward any person, Christian or otherwise.

    Subtracting Works

    Somebody gets it. We're supposed to do good works "for God hath before ordained that we should walk in them" which is that pesky verse 10 before which Antinomianists love to stop short. If only silly Antinomianists would just believe the Bible when it says "the carnal mind...is not subject to...

    ADDING WORKS:

    Jesus said He "kept My Father's commandments..." so by your logic, He had no faith in the One in Whom He was to place it, right? Wow, if God's people are to "have the faith of Jesus" in order to be saved...and Jesus had no faith...we're all in big trouble :)

    ADDING WORKS:

    Pretty sure the ones who are endangering themselves and others are those who break God's Commandments and teach others to do that, as well, right?

    ADDING WORKS:

    No, the Bible explicitly says in Revelation 22:14 we are granted entrance to heaven based on whether we have obeyed God's commandments - and since the carnal heart cannot obey God even it it wanted to (Romans 8:7 KJV), there lies the relevance of obedience to salvation: the evidence of a...

    an open letter to bbyrd009

    Not that my opinion matters to anyone, but I think we should all do our best to "let the minds clash, but keep the fists down". Bread of Life arrogantly continues to promote papal Antichrist doctrine, which I hate because it's the most dangerous to humanity of all religious error that exists in...

    Subtracting Works

    So then, if our works condemn us, to what fate are we condemned?

    Subtracting Works

    How do we harmonize Scriptures which teach the plain truth that we are saved by grace through faith which is not of ourselves, but a gift from God, not of works, lest any man should boast - with many other Scriptures which apparently teach salvation is also, to one degree or another, by works...

    ADDING WORKS:

    Ever notice the favorite opprobrium of leftists for those who disagree with them is "hate"???

    ADDING WORKS:

    Paul was in good company: Paul: "...not the hearers of the law, but the doers of the law..." Peter: "...seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit..." (What is truth? "...thy law is the truth...all Thy commandments are truth." "I am the...truth..." - Psalm...

    Jack Van Impe Challenging Pope Francis to Debate!!

    I've not time for the emotionally unstable. No, I don't thing Sunday worshipers are going to hell and the SDA church doesn't teach that. What we teach is that, just as in Bible times, religious laws will be enacted in which God's law will be replaced with man made laws, the chief of which will...

    Jack Van Impe Challenging Pope Francis to Debate!!

    I hate the teachings of the catholic church because they are doctrines of devils which, as one writer put it, are "a method of forgetting God which shall pass as a method of remembering him.". Many catholics are happy with this arrangement - they can live as they please as long as they adhere to...

    Please explain this.

    We're saved by faith but judged by our works because our works demonstrate we've been saved by faith. Not that difficult a concept, except for those who insist on trying to hold onto sin and Jesus at the same time.
